In a bizarre incident, a couple abandoned their baby at an airport check-in counter after arriving without a ticket for the little one.

According to CNN, the January 31 incident took place at Israel's Tel Aviv airport. 

The couple frantically headed-off to board the flight for Brussels, leaving their child at the check-in counter, an airport official told CNN.

Israeli Airport Authority also confirmed the development saying that the infant was left behind by the couple in the hurry to reach the boarding gate. It added that the couple had arrived late at the airport and check-ins were closed too. So they ran towards the boarding gate and left their child.

This was followed by the check-in agent at the airport chasing the passengers, an official told CNN

The baby was later united with the parents and there is no further investigation in the matter, the CNN report added.
